Man Has Girl Present Hold-Up Note at Bank

Michael Lyons apparently had a funny practical joke planned for his daughter's birthday. In the end, no one was laughing ? especially Lyons.

Lyons, 45, was arrested after he told a 13-year-old girl to hand a note to a bank teller, police said. The note said, "Give me all of your money, this is a stick up," according to a police report.

The incident happened Friday when Lyons and a group of girls were celebrating his daughter's birthday. While he was getting money out of an ATM, the girl went into the bank and handed the note to a teller.

The teller sounded the bank's alarm, and police and FBI surrounded the building. Instead of robbers, they found Lyons and the girls.

Lyons was charged with criminal attempt of robbery by intimidation, said Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan Police spokesman Bucky Burnsed.

"You can't yell 'fire' in a crowded theater, can't joke about a bomb in your luggage at the airport, and you can't write notes to cashier that say 'This is a stick up,'" Burnsed said.

Idiot..:rolleyes:s:

First of all ... why would you be intimidated by a 13-year old girl?

Second of all ... why would this guy even think of doing this without something bad coming out of it?

People are really wack.

No, people are dumb. How do you know the other people in the place weren't loaded down with handguns or whatnot awaiting the response from the cashier to the little girl.

The teller did what she was trained to do. It was obvious the father wasn't thinking :no:

I guess that's true. I personally would have figured it was a practical joke, as most pre-teens in my city are snobby kids who would do that kind of stuff for a laugh, but that's just me :pinch: . And I do agree that her dad was not thinking. I mean, how could he possibly not think something bad would come out of that situation?

because there are 7 year old kids who rape 6 year old girls

because there are 9 year old kids who shoot and kill their parents with shotguns

because a 13 year old held up a bank with her dad's gun a few years ago at the bank i go to a few times a week.

And it comes down to idiot parents like this guy.

That's the unfortunate price of freedom: people are lax on laws that follow common sense and too restrictive on laws that throw out any forms of common sense.

I'm pretty sure the dad intimidated the girl, not the other way around. The point is, if you coerce/intimidate someone into commiting a crime, it's the same as you actually doing it. It is no different than paying someone to commit a crime for you.

That guy was a rare breed of moron. On the other hand, I'm not quite sure how you end up arresting this guy once you realize that it was what passed for a joke in the mind of a guy with a room temperature IQ.

I mean, I can understand being righteously ****ed off... but you're basically trying to put a guy who didn't do anything in prison. Just have him pay the costs of shipping all those cops and FBI agents out there; I'm sure he's already learned his lesson, but that would really hammer it home. Putting him in a federal penitentiary....? Only in America. :no:

Arresting this guy is just going too far...

It was only a joke! ... this must have happened in the U.S.

Yeah, but there's a thin line between what's constituted as a 'joke' and what's not. After all, post 9-11 it's definitely a stupid mistake to yell out the word B-O-M-B in the airport.

Well in my personal opinion he should be sent to some institution to properly teach him essential parenting skills, but yeah.

What kind of a joke is that anyway? You expect the teller to laugh in front of the girl and tell her 'happy birthday'? :huh:

    • I am not a US citizen nor a Trump fan. Respect to both left and right. But I will, for the sake of fun, predict something for my own. There will come a day when the US and China will collide like titans ( over Taiwan or anything else ). Then, on that day, some people in this comment section will realize how good an idea it was to become independent in areas like that. ( Or atleast try )
    • Microsoft Edge gets tons of security features, including AI model that can see your screen by Usama Jawad Microsoft Edge may not be the most popular browser out there, but it does receive quite frequent updates that sometimes bring surprising new features and axe others that are not as popular. Now, Microsoft has detailed some of the new security enhancements that it has introduced in Edge for Business, typically used by commercial customers. Microsoft has emphasized that security features are baked into Edge for Business and offer native integration with security and governance tools like Defender and Purview. Browser sessions are governed by default on managed devices but can also be governed through dedicated work profiles on unmanaged devices. An important aspect in this area is controlling the use of shadow AI. We have talked about this before, but it essentially restricts employees from using unsanctioned AI apps through data loss prevention (DLP) policies, with Edge redirecting them to trusted AI services like Microsoft 365 Copilot. This feature, available as a pay-as-you-go (PAYG) license, ensures that confidential data never exits AI boundaries set by your organization in Purview. Additionally, Microsoft also has strong DLP policies for contractors. Contractors leveraging a Entra ID-joined work profile provisioned by their contracting company on a device managed by their actual employer can be restricted from downloading files locally. In such scenarios, the file is saved on the contracting firm's OneDrive rather than being downloaded locally. Another useful Edge security feature disallows copying and pasting from unmanaged locations and apps. Similarly, DLP policies can be configured at a granular level to restrict screenshots or downloading of files from certain locations. In the same vein, IT admins can block the installation of extensions, hosted apps, themes and scripts, and control if users can install extensions from external locations. They can also enable the installation of specific extensions and allow users to request access to certain extensions, so that they can be managed on a case-by-case basis. Finally, Edge for Business now has an on-device AI model that uses computer vision to see what's on your screen and block potentially malicious content immediately. This does not rely on site reputation, as it simply monitors what is being displayed on your screen, which means that it is effective against malicious content that takes over your screen and employs scareware tactics. Since this is an on-device AI model, it does use your system's resources, so it's enabled by default only on devices with at least 2GB of RAM and four CPU cores. You can find more details in the Microsoft Mechanics video here.
